August 19 "Even Now" Joel 1-3

"Even now, declares the Lord, return to me with all your heart, with fasting and weeping and mourning. Rend your heart and not your garments. Return to the Lord your God, for He is gracious, compassionate, slow to anger, and abounding in love He relents from sending calamity." "Even now" This thing that I sit in. There may be hope of avoiding the current calamity: Inwardly repent and grieve for your sins.
